One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I got lye in my eyes and went blind for weeks and then miraculously regained my vision. Less than a year later I was pepper sprayed by two cops at once for an extended period of time and went to the same hospital to have my eyes flushed out with crazy tubey things. Amazing probably is not the most fitting word.
